2.7 A cryo-EM structure of vitrified M. musculus H-chain apoferritin from a compact 200 keV cryo-microscope.

Project description:Here we present the structure of mouse H-chain apoferritin at 2.7 Å (FSC = 0.143) solved by single particle cryogenic electron microscopy (cryo-EM) using a 200 kV device, the Thermo Fisher Glacios®. This is a compact, two-lens illumination system with a constant power objective lens, without any energy filters or aberration correctors, often thought of as a "screening cryo-microscope". Coulomb potential maps reveal clear densities for main chain carbonyl oxygens, residue side chains (including alternative conformations) and bound solvent molecules. We used a quasi-crystallographic reciprocal space approach to fit model coordinates to the experimental cryo-EM map. We argue that the advantages offered by (a) the high electronic and mechanical stability of the microscope, (b) the high emission stability and low beam energy spread of the high brightness Field Emission Gun (X-FEG), (c) direct electron detection technology and (d) particle-based Contrast Transfer Function (CTF) refinement have contributed to achieving high resolution. Overall, we show that basic electron optical settings for automated cryo-electron microscopy imaging can be used to determine structures approaching atomic resolution.

DNAHX: a novel, non-motile dynein heavy chain subfamily, identified by cryo-EM endogenously.

Project description:Ciliogenesis and cilia motility rely on the coordinated actions of diverse dyneins, yet the complexity of these motor proteins in cilia has posed challenges for understanding their specific roles. Traditional evolutionary analyses often overlook key family members due to technical limitations. Here, we present a cryo-EM-based, bottom-up approach for large-scale, de novo protein identification and functional prediction of endogenous axonemal dynein complexes. This approach led to the identification of a novel dynein heavy chain subfamily (XP_041462850), designated as DNAHX, from sea urchin sperm. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that DNAHX branches from the outer-arm dynein alpha chain during evolution and is found in specific animal lineages with external fertilization. DNAHX contains multiple insertions throughout the protein, locking DNAHX permanently in a pre-powerstroke state. The AAA1 site exhibits poor conservation of essential ATPase motifs, consistent with DNAHX's non-motile nature. DNAHX also forms a heterodimeric dynein complex, which we named dynein-X, with another dynein heavy chain and accessory chains. Furthermore, a subset of dynein-X displays an autoinhibited phi particle conformation, potentially facilitating the intraflagellar transport of axonemal dyneins. Our discovery of the novel, non-motile dynein heavy chain and the dynein-X complex provides valuable insights into the evolution of dyneins and potentially their diverse cellular functions.

Cryo-EM structure of mouse TRPML2 in lipid nanodiscs.

Project description:In mammalians, transient receptor potential mucolipin ion channels (TRPMLs) exhibit variable permeability to cations such as Ca2+, Fe2+, Zn2+, and Na+ and can be activated by the phosphoinositide PI(3,5)P2 in the endolysosomal system. Loss or dysfunction of TRPMLs has been implicated in lysosomal storage disorders, infectious diseases, and metabolic diseases. TRPML2 has recently been identified as a mechanosensitive and hypotonicity-sensitive channel in endolysosomal organelles, which distinguishes it from TRPML1 and TRPML3. However, the molecular and gating mechanism of TRPML2 remains elusive. Here, we present the cryo-EM structure of the full-length mouse TRPML2 in lipid nanodiscs at 3.14 Å resolution. The TRPML2 homotetramer structure at pH 7.4 in the apo state reveals an inactive conformation and some unique features of the extracytosolic/luminal domain and voltage sensor-like domain that have implications for the ion-conducting pathway. This structure enables new comparisons between the different subgroups of TRPML channels with available structures and provides structural insights into the conservation and diversity of TRPML channels. These comparisons have broad implications for understanding a variety of molecular mechanisms of TRPMLs in different pH conditions, including with and without bound agonists and antagonists.

Cryo-EM structure of the chain-elongating E3 ubiquitin ligase UBR5.

Project description:UBR5 is a nuclear E3 ligase that ubiquitinates a vast range of substrates for proteasomal degradation. This HECT domain-containing ubiquitin ligase has recently been identified as an important regulator of oncogenes, e.g., MYC, but little is known about its structure or mechanisms of substrate engagement and ubiquitination. Here, we present the cryo-EM structure of human UBR5, revealing an α-solenoid scaffold with numerous protein-protein interacting motifs, assembled into an antiparallel dimer that adopts further oligomeric states. Using cryo-EM processing tools, we observe the dynamic nature of the UBR5 catalytic domain, which we postulate is important for its enzymatic activity. We characterise the proteasomal nuclear import factor AKIRIN2 as an interacting protein and propose UBR5 as an efficient ubiquitin chain elongator. This preference for ubiquitinated substrates and several distinct domains for protein-protein interactions may explain how UBR5 is linked to several different signalling pathways and cancers. Together, our data expand on the limited knowledge of the structure and function of HECT E3 ligases.
